Bingo is the name of the game, and those who don't get there early could get shut out. "I play bingo wherever I can, and I like it here a lot," said Mary Anne Fischer. She's not a club member, but you're not required to be for bingo games. "They're so nice here, and everyone acts like you're part of the club," Fischer said.

I learned a little something about culture here. Not Slovak culture, but bingo fanatic culture, aka…read moregambling addiction. The space is wide open and airy with lots of long tables, each seating one to three players - many players took up entire tables with their excessive quantity of bingo cards, wide variety of dabbers (often in a specifically designed tote bag), and in some cases, an array of good luck charms. Bright fluorescent lights illuminate the scene and a balcony with overflow seating was our vantage point for observation (and play). Their website says they have a smoking floor and a non smoking floor, so I was imagining a darker smoke filled social hall, but there is now no smoking allowed and I soon realized that bingo is not a social game. With my one bingo card, I had twelve boards to keep up with (twelve is the minimum for play = $12), and let me tell you, I had a hard time staying with it - they call them out fairly rapidly! Chatting and joking with my friend was hardly possible without blowing our game. The food was super limited, low quality, mostly packaged junk. No alcohol is served. There is only one reason to attend and that is for the hope of winning money. There was an interesting buzz in the room toward the end of each game, like the group had a psychic (more like experienced) knowledge that bingo was about to be called. This collective murmur felt like a communal expression of frustration and anxiety. We try so hard, come so close and rarely succeed. The demographic of the room is statistically disadvantaged peoples. In addition to bingo, dealers on the floor sell other sorts of game tickets, like paper slot machine cards. The psychological exchange between the dealers and the players was like a crack deal; the dealers knew many of the players, knew when to come around, what to say and used lingo an outsider would not understand. There was an antsy desperation to win among the addicted, me, I just wanted to get outta there. With a packed house, there is no doubt someone is winning, that is the Slovak Catholic Sokols and their beneficiaries. As for the venue, although full of characters, it has no character itself - it is one of those big quick construction metal buildings.

Awesome hall, awesome people, good food at the event, overall 5/5 great place!…read more We came for the Boo Bash Cash Bash and I have to say out of all the local and further Fire Halls/Event spaces run by a fire department this is one of the nicest I've seen. Wasn't a huge space but it can hold up to 250 so it can get a good crowd and be just fine. The food was good and fresh. The facility was extremely clean and the kitchen was immaculate. The volunteers who run the hall on top of fighting fires are nice and welcoming! We had a really good time. They said they do 2 events a year and other one is around Mardi Gras. I would certainly come back again and highly recommend the space. Very accessible and ample parking for the crowd they had. Not sure they could handle the full 250 when it comes to parking but otherwise awesome space. Also they are about the only VFD who runs the online drawings with thorough transparency and tags the winners and goes above and beyond to make sure they are fair and just.

I realize casinos are there to make money, but at least give me a chance on my bets. Most of the newer machines even on small bets require you to play all the lines. There were no longer the older style machines like Timber Wolf which you did not have to play all the lines yet make higher bets. Also they were putting in banks of new machine that were not setup yet so it was not a good day and I won't go back. PS The last time I was at Live there was a lady with a very small bank roll. I showed her a way to bet fewer lines yet at a higher bet and on her third spin she won over one hundred dollars on a 15 cent bet and from what I saw today (4/9/26) those days are gone. I will stick to the Rivers and Meadows Casino which still has some of the older machines.

The reception area on the second floor of the casino was well-appointed and the food was pretty good.
